Hi there!
A recipe for cake needs 3/4 of a cup of milk.
We are making 1/2 of the recipe, which means we also need half of the milk needed for the total recipe. Therefore, we can multiply 1/2 (half of the recipe) by 3/4 (the total amount of cups of milk needed for the total recipe).
Hence, we need
3/8 cups of milk
To solve this problem, we need to set up a proportion.
2 batches of nut bars/ 4 eggs = 1 batch of nut bars / x eggs.
To solve this proportion, we use cross products, or multiplying the numerator of one number by the denominator of the other and setting them equal to one another.
(4 eggs) (1 batch) = (2 batches) (x eggs)
4= 2x
2=x
Therefore, 2 eggs are used in each batch of nut bars.
Actual price of the dress = 72
Selling price = 45
72 - 45 = $ 27
Percentage of decrease =
<h3>= <u>37.5%</u></h3>
.... Hope this will help.....
Answer:
At 0.77 mi/min, Matt travels faster than Jennifer, who averages
only 0.67 mi/min.
Step-by-step explanation:
Average speed = distance/time
<em>For Samantha,
</em>
Average speed = 10/15
Average speed = 0.67 mi/min
<em>For Matt,
</em>
Average speed = 23/30
Average speed = 0.77 mi/min
We must find time by using the simple interest formula:
I = P x i x t
I is the interest
P is the total principal
i is the rate of interest per year
t is the total time in years
In this example, when we plug our known values in, our formula looks like this:
t =
t =
t = 4
So time (in years) would be 4 years.
